MedClean Forms Medical Waste Partnership

MedClean Technologies Inc. is partnering with two other medical waste organizations to expand its business.

The Bethlehem, Pa.-based medical waste technology firm said in a news release it is partnering with Park Ridge, Ill.-based MedPro Waste Disposal LLC and the Independent Medical Waste Transporters Association (IMWTA), of Hayward, Calif., to implement an initiative to utilize the IMWTA members’ services.

MedClean sponsors the Medical Waste Hauling Program, which is powered by MedPro and can involve customer savings of 20 percent or more.

With the partnership MedClean and MedPro plan to offer the program to all IMWTA members. The campaign includes telemarketing, bid/proposal management to the IMWTA, contract administration and customer billing services. IMWTA member hauling services will be used to provide service.

MedClean said it is targeting 10 percent to 20 percent of the $3.5 billion dollar medical waste market.

MedClean’s technology applies to medical waste treatment and disposal and the destruction of confidential documents and related media.

"This is a landmark program for the regulated medical waste industry, specifically to the small quantity waste generator, which typically pays significantly higher prices for hauling services due to the fact that only one entity existed in the marketplace that had the bandwidth to serve the market," said David Laky, MedClean president and CEO.
